My Ride or Die Podcast
I have been listening to this podcast since the first episode came out and I am always impressed by every episode that is released. Not only is the final product amazing, but the work that goes into creating the podcast is always so impressive. The Astonishing Research Core (ARC) puts in so much effort and help create such an amazing show that I look forward to listening every week. The Astonishing Legends podcast isn't just about ghosts or UFOs, but covers such a wide variety of podcasts if the weird and unexplained, there will be something for you!!

Great Ratings
Great for those of us who don't have iTunes, or want to rate something that isn't available there.
A great app to share reviews (both good and bad) of books, music, podcasts, movies, tabletop games, apps, tech items, and clothing, to help others who want to know whether something is worth trying. As a member you can both read and leave reviews, and enter giveaway draws to have items sent to you to review, some of which are pretty epic.
The Smashbomb app is proof that good things come in small packages.

Completely portable
Great narrators!
Biggest Smallest Bookshelf Ever!
Hands-free reading at its very best, this is the biggest, smallest bookshelf around. With an incredible choice of classics, modern, fiction, non-fiction, biographies, and podcasts, the Audible app gen uinely has something for everyone, and yet it still fits in your pocket. The user interface is simple and intuitive, and subscribers get free episodic content as well as a credit for a free book every month, which can be spent on any book in the store regardless of price!
The app synchs, so you can be listening to a book on your tablet, switch to your phone and it will pick up at the same place. You can listen to books narrated by famous names like Stephen Fry, and a host of other wonderful voices, at home, in your car, through your headphones, and wherever else you can listen to music or podcasts, and the voices appear to be selected specifically with the content in mind. And if you don't like a book, you can simply swap it for another one, no questions asked.
All in all, Audible is a great, easy to use app, with fantastic content, excellent customer service, an amazing range and number of books and 'shows', and fantastic voice talents, all for a very low monthly fee. And you can give it a try with the first month (and your first book) free in a lot of cases.

Podcast of Talk and Rock N Roll
I have been a fan of Chris Jericho's since I first saw him on WCW back in the day. Followed him through his move to WWE and then when I stopped watching wrestling he fell off my radar.
Podcasts are amazing for catching back up with celebrities that were born to talk. And talk he does. Jericho uses his connections in the music industry and the wrestling world to bring stars of yesterday and today onto the airwaves. His interviews are amazing, thought-provoking, and real. He gets his guests involved in long-form conversations that draw out stories that they might not have told otherwise.

Little known true crime (4 more)
Good vibes
Funny bants
Minority allies
Taking on difficult topics
F***ed Up S**t
Long-time friends Alvin and Fran talk about the true crime you probably haven't heard of, because most podcasts cover the white male serial killers and not the minority serial killers covered in Affirmative Murder. Sprinkled with adult language, mood lightening occasional humour, and conversations about difficult topics, these two manage to be irreverent, informative, intelligent, and enlightening.
They don't mind if you look sideways at them when you pass them on the street, as long as you look at everyone else with suspicion too.
Welcome to the most educational fact-free zone you ever entered. ♥️

Amber Murray-Schroer (4 KP) rated S-Town in Podcasts
Aug 17, 2018
Prepare to laugh and cry at this real life mystery unveil in real time....
I can't think of any other podcast like S-Town, but after I binged the entire first season on it's release date, I expected to find a plethora of the type in the next few months on account of it's success. But unlike Serial - a true crime podcast that broke the internet and introduced 90% of the world to our amazing little corner - S-Town is hard to even identify it's genre , let alone duplicate something that's good because it is unique , so to my dismay, I still hold S-TOWN up there as my top 5 and am always on the lookout for the next diamond in the rough.
Unfortunately, telling you too much of any of this podcast is not fair because you deserve the chance to listen with unabashed views or predetermined ideas so you too will have no idea of what's coming...that's the best way to go into this one!
Oh, since I didn't tell you ABYTHJNG about it, just know that of all the podcasts I've tried to get my husband to listen all the way thru to - this, S-TOWN, was the only one he's ever listened to from the first to last episode. And he is hard to entertain with podcasts or audiobooks , so if he was asking me to "play the next one" after the first, you're sure to enjoy it just as much as we did. And that's all ya need to know!

Seriously entertaining, essential for any movie fan
Currently on episode 102, I'm ashamed to say that I only recently discovered Skip To The End. It's now the only podcast I listen to, eagerly awaiting the release of each new episode. I don't really have time to listen to any other podcasts anyway... but that's not the point...
The 3 presenters are all very knowledgeable, all very funny, and have a great rapport with each other. Each week, a new movie release is reviewed and dissected and a classic movie gets rewatched for analysis and discussion. Regular features such as the top 3 (top 3 moments that ruined a movie, top 3 anti-heroes) and the mass debate all add up to make this a thoroughly enjoyable podcast for any movie fan. Highly recommended.

Wow ... that was a fast-paced, non-stop, action-packed read from page 1 and I absolutely devoured it.
The pace is relentless, the characters are strong and likeable and whilst the twists didn't surprise me that much, they didn't take away any of the enjoyment for me.
This is what I would call a traditional cat-and-mouse story, however, it felt up to date and modern with the addition of podcasts which, I think, worked extremely well and introduced a different element and perspective to the story.
Alex Knight is definitely an author I will seek out in the future.
Thanks must go to The Orion Publishing Group and NetGalley for providing me with an advance copy in return for an honest, unbiased and unedited review.

Martin short
Selena gomez
Just watched the first two episodes on Disney plus thru star there adult section and so far so good it's on the short side just over half an hour per episode could have been longer extra ten mins that's my only complaint. On two the show itself all three leads are Brilliant especially martin and short who've been working together for so they have great chemistry just comic timing and there's selena gomez finally doing something more adult than those disney channel type shows she's used to doing. Overall I shall be watching this everyweek to find out who the is as well. Also I'm just as bad when it comes to listening to podcasts I like on occasion to listen to true crime podcast aswell
Jesters_folly (230 KP) rated Start With This in Podcasts
Oct 4, 2019
Start with this is a podcast by the creators of ‘Welcome to Nightvale, Jeffery Cranor & Joseph Fink. Each episode is on a chosen topic to help with either writing stories or recording podcasts. Each episode is split into two parts; in part one the hosts talk about the subject, giving the listener information how the subject would work and then, in the second half they set out two tasks, the first takes the form of reading material or audio which uses the episodes subject and then the second task is use the subject in a short piece of written/audio work. The listeners can then post their work on the Start With This site (www.nightvalepresents.com/startwiththis) although this is a patron page with a $5 moth charge to use. As well as the web site there is a Facebook page.
As the hosts write record and produce ‘Welcome to Nightvale’ as well as other shows they have experience in the subject matter and use that experience in the show. You can also tell that they are used to working together as the show flows well as they talk.
I have only recently found this podcast and only listen to a few episodes but I have found it entertaining and useful. Each episode is only about half an hour long so the listener is not bogged down with too much information and all the assignments seem easy enough (if you choose to do them) but the show doesn’t get tied up with the listener taking part meaning it is ok and useful if you only want to listen to the show. I use Stitcher to listen to podcasts and all the back episodes are still currently available
